Well, that's reasonable. Apparently the university has a defacto policy that you may not establish a mail server on campus. You might want to ask them to open a port for you. We, for example, would only open port 587 inbound in response to a specific request. Of course, our MSA hosts do use port 587 inbound. Of course, we do have 587 outbound open, but not port 25. -- Ian Eiloart IT Services, University of Sussex 01273-873148 x3148 For new support requests, see http://www.sussex.ac.uk/its/help/ -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://wiki.exim.org/
